Cherry Pie

Hello my lovely blogging buddies, I have a pie to share with you today of the cherry variety, which is actually my favourite!! The whole digi kit came from Buddly Crafts and includes not only the pie image but plates of pasta, lots of papers and tags too so a really versatile kit.

I printed the pie several times in order to create decoupage, as you can see from this shot. I added clear embossing powder to the cherries and popped a Marianne die cut behind the pie to suggest a lace doily. The ribbon and tag were in my stash and I think the perfect sentiment was a Clearly besotted freebie that came with a magazine. I thoroughly enjoyed doing a bit of cutting and sticking for a change!!

I LOVE this card! I am going to have to visit Buddly Crafts! I am officially naming you an enabler if I see something I cannot live without. haha Just love the details of this and you've so tempted me with the description of the set. Your pictures of the visitors to your garden were not boring at all! :) Thanks for sharing and joining us at Inspiration Destination. Hope to see you again and good luck!EmaIDCB Owner

OK YUM!! This pie looks good enough to eat!! :) LOVE the dimension you've got with your image and I love the papers too!! Wow, you've got all kinds of visitors! We have the pesky rabbits that like to nibble on our garden goodies, but thank goodness we don't get much more than that! LOL!

Oh! YUMMY...what a fabulous pie and I love the papers and doily Sarah with the gingham ribbon..just screams country..perfect.Cute photos of your visitors..I only get city birds begging for scraps and trying to pinch the dogs bone...

Hi Sarah,oh what a superb creation.I love it.Great designing and dcoupage too.Love your photos of the wild life around your farm.Now my step son lives in the town and had a family of foxes living under his shed, and guess what when they moved on as their young got older another lot took up home there.Must have smelt the last lot and thought this must be safe.one night the young were crying all night as their mother hadn't come back, but luckily she returned in the morning.Lots of crafty love.

Sarah, you are so patient to do all that cutting out! The end result is really beautiful and I love the die cut doily and the gorgeous shiny cherries. The photo's of the wildlife in your garden are gorgeous. We live in a place with a lovely view and furred and feathered visitors but I am never quick enough with the camera! Sue...xxx

Sarah, brilliant card love your design. Great photos, Beth and I had the pleasure of seeing a mum dear with her baby standing on the big drive yesterday morning when we came back from dropping Anna off, we are like you and lucky to see wild life every day. Hazel,x

Love your card the design is great and the decoupage is so different I've not done this in ages. I forgot how lovely it looks Thanks for sharing such great photos they are brilliant Love and hugs Carole x

Good morning Sarah, Love your card Mmmm!! looks delicious. Great colours and design.Like you we are so lucky to be surrounded by wildlife every day of the week. Sadly we are so used to it I forget to Photograph it. I really must have my camera at hand more.Patricia x

Gorgeous work as always Sarah and great photos as well, love Foxes, just a shame they are so destructive when it come to the hens. Apols for the no show for a few days but been up to my ears in samples.

Hi Sarah oohh this cherry pie looks good enough to eat what a great card! And I really love the photos too that little fox looks so sweet you will have to show us all your crochet projects I bet they are lovely! The photos are definitely not boring I love looking at wildlife too!HugsVic xx

Looks so yummy with the layers and glistening cherries. Love that cherry 'wallpaper' and its pristine white doily to show off your delicious pie. This one looks so very realistic, with the wonderful effects you've used on it. Enjoyed seeing the pictures of your visitors too. The hawk looks so very fierce, and glad he didn't visit at the same time as Mr. Bunny. We do indeed sometimes get fairly ferocious electrical storms, but nothing really bad lately. In So Florida, we used to get even worse ones in the afternoon. Didn't realize that you didn't get such in the UK. When I watch the Brit shows, it always seems to be raining. Right now, we're rewatching the Midsommer Murders with J. Nettles (whom I liked best). Love those little villages. TFS & Have a great upcoming weekend. Hugs
